Negentropic Thermal Gradients: Experimental Evidence of Entropy Decrease Driven by Active Heat Flux
Abstract
The Second Law of Thermodynamics asserts that entropy in isolated systemstends toward maximum, with heat transfer representing dissipative energy dispersion. We present experimental evidence challenging this axiom through systematicobservations of entropy-decreasing processes driven by active thermal gradients. Using controlled experiments, we demonstrate: (1) spontaneous organization of matteragainst gravitational potential toward heat sources (negentropy), (2) instantaneouscessation of thermodynamic work (
